Watercolour demonstration by Susan Boddy

Susan Boddy joined Writtle Art Group on the Monday 24th February and gave us a very informative and enjoyable demonstration.

Susan, using just three colours - French Ultra Marine, Light Red, and Burnt Siena - showed the power of a  limited pallet and the need to consider perspective in our work.

We thank Susan and look forward to another session with you in the future.

Demonstration by Susan Clare

Writtle Art Group welcomed Susan Clare on Monday the 8th of July.  Susan's confident style of working was, for most members, a new experience and we thank her for the clear explanations and encouragement that will no doubt tempt some members to "have a go" the Susan Clare way!

Denise Allen Demonstration

Denise Allen Demonstration



Denise Allen demonstration on the 11th March proved to be an entertaining and very informative session.  Taking a waterfall as the theme Denise's loose painting style and use of a limited pallet was an excellent example of "less can be more* - assuming you have her talent!
